did not reach statistical significancep = 0.3319
Analysis of final asymptotic performance with the smaller reward zone showed that the reward check rate was slightly elevated in the target quadrant, but this did not reach statistical significance (Effect of quadrant: F(3,23) = 1.234, p = 0.3319, percent check rate in target quadrant: 28%+/– 1.74 SE), which seems at odds with their spatial navigational measures showing preference for the rewarded quadrant.
